Insights into the formation of metal carbon nanocomposites for energy storage using hybrid NiFe layered double hydroxides as precursors
2020
[EN] NiFe-carbon magnetic nanocomposites prepared using hybrid sebacate intercalated layered double hydroxides (LDHs) as precursors are shown to be of interest as supercapacitors. Here, the low-temperature formation mechanism of these materials has been deciphered by means of a combined study using complementaryin situ(temperature-dependent) techniques. Specifically, studies involving X-ray powder diffraction, thermogravimetry coupled to mass spectrometry (TG-MS), statistical Raman spectroscopy (SRS), aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) have been carried out. The experimental results confirm the early formation o…
Two-component self-assembly with solvent leading to "wet" and microcrystalline organogel fibers
2014
Abstract Hypothesis The microcrystalline fibers of N -(2-aminoethyl)-3α-hydroxy-5β-cholan-24-amide 1 provided a useful model system for studying the complex relationship between morphology, experimental parameters, solvent, and the phenomenon of organogelation. The presence of solvents in the solid forms of 1 along with crystallization behavior suggested solvate formation and polymorphic behavior. Experiments Forty solid state- and xerogel samples of 1 formed in organic solvents and in three categories of experimental conditions were analyzed with single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Raman microscopy, and attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infr…
Reactive Powder Concrete Containing Basalt Fibers: Strength, Abrasion and Porosity
2020
The paper presents the test results of basalt fiber impact on a compressive and flexural strength, resistance to abrasion and porosity of Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC). The reasons for testing were interesting mechanical properties of basalt fibers, the significant tensile strength and flexural strength, and in particular the resistance to high temperatures, as well as a relatively small number of RPC tests performed with those fibers and different opinions regarding the impact of those fibers on concrete strength. The composition of the concrete mix was optimized to obtain the highest packing density of particles in the composite, based on the optimum particle size distribution curve acc.…
Microbiological Profile and Bioactive Properties of Insect Powders Used in Food and Feed Formulations
2019
Microbiological, nutritional and bioactive properties of edible powders obtained from Acheta domesticus (house cricket) and Tenebrio molitor (mealworm) were investigated. Except for the enterobacteria, viable bacteria were at a higher concentration in mealworm flour. The diversity evaluation carried out using MiSeq Illumina that mainly identified Citrobacter and Enterobacteriaceae in mealworm powder and members of the Porphyromonadaceae family in house cricket powder. Enterococci were identified and characterized for their safety characteristics in terms of the absence of antibiotic resistance and virulence. Both powders represent a good source of proteins and lipids. The fatty acid profile…
Low-temperature metastabilization of tetragonal V+4-containing ZrO2 solid solutions
2001
Abstract The formation and characterization of tetragonal vanadium–zirconia solid solutions with different vanadium contents have been investigated. Vanadium–zirconia precursors were prepared by gelling mixtures of zirconium n-propoxide and vanadyl acetylacetonate, and studied over the range of temperature up to the tetragonal–monoclinic phase transformation. The formation of the tetragonal phase has been investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). It was found that it took place after annealing around 450°C for all specimens independently of the vanadium loading. In contrast, the temperature for the subsequent tetragonal to monoclinic transformation was dependent on the nominal vanadiu…

Abstract Interstitial polymetallic oxynitrides in the solid solution series V 1− u − z Cr u Mo z (O x N y ), V 1− u − z Cr u W z (O x N y ) and Cr 1− u − z Mo u W z (O x N y ) ( u , z = 0.2, 0.33, 0.4, 0.6, u + z z Cr z Mo z W z (O x N y ) ( z = 0.25) composition, can be obtained by ammonolysis of precursors resulting from the freeze-drying of aqueous solutions of the simple metal salts NH 4 VO 3 , (NH 4 ) 2 CrO 4 , (NH 4 ) 6 Mo 7 O 24 ·4H 2 O and (NH 4 ) 6 W 12 O 39 ·18H 2 O. A study of the influence of the preparative variables on the outcomes of this procedure is presented. Compounds in the V 1− u − z Cr u Mo z (O x N y ) series have been prepared as single phases by direct ammonolys…
Unveiled the Source of the Structural Instability of HKUST Powders upon Mechanical Compaction: Definition of a Fully Preserving Tableting Method
2019
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are getting closer to finally being used in commercial applications. In order to maximize their packing density, mechanical strength, stability in reactive environments, and many other properties, the compaction of MOF powders is a fundamental step for the application field of research of these extraordinary materials. In particular, HKUST-1 is among the most promising and studied MOF. Contrary to what reported so far in the literature, here we prove that the tableting of HKUST-1 powders without any damage of the lattice is possible and easy to get. For the first time, this kind of investigation has been performed exploiting its peculiar magnetic properties w…
Ultralow thermal conductivity in 1D and 2D imidazolium-based lead halide perovskites
2021
Low-dimensional hybrid organic–inorganic metal halide perovskites are rapidly emerging as a fascinating sub-class of the three-dimensional parent structures, thanks to their appealing charge and thermal transport properties, paired to better chemical and thermal stabilities. Extensive investigations of the thermal behavior in these systems are of paramount relevance to understand their optoelectronic and thermoelectric applications. Herein, we present a complete thermophysical characterization of imidazolium lead iodide, (IMI)PbI3, a 1D pseudo-perovskite with chains of face-sharing octahedra, and histammonium lead iodide, (HIST)PbI4, a 2D layered perovskite with corner-sharing octahedra.
